Class specification

Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts and the State Auditor's Office publishes one State Auditor's Office job description (series) for the Auditor series, which includes this class. The passages below are quoted from it as published, not paraphrased, and cut to their opening sentences; the full specification is the authority on duties and qualifications.

What the state says the job is

Performs examination, investigation, and review of records, reports, financial statements, and management practices to ensure legal compliance with state statutes and internal regulations; and conducts audits for program economy, efficiency, and effectiveness.

How it differs from neighbouring classes

The Auditor series is intended for employees performing audits that are not directly related to the agency in which they work. Employees who primarily perform audits on their agency’s business processes and practices to protect against fraud and theft of the agency’s assets and to help improve the agency’s operations may be better classified within the Internal Auditor job classification series.

Examples of the work

Examines and analyzes management operations, internal control structures and systems, and accounting records for reliability, adequacy, accuracy, efficiency, and compliance with legal regulations; and reports erroneous or questionable transactions. Prepares working papers to document the results of the work performed, including interviews, data analysis, and other documentation. Advises on the requirements, liabilities, and penalties of compliance and noncompliance, and recommends improved accounting or management operation systems controls. Performs related work as assigned.

Special requirements

May require certification as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Internal Auditor (CIA), Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA), Certified Management Accountant (CMA), Certified Professional Environmental Auditor (CPEA), or Certified Government Auditing Professional (CGAP).
